About Me

Copy and Share

I have moved a lot in my life. I have lived in Utah, Colorado, Montana, Arizona, Kansas, New Mexico, Nebraska, and Idaho. I love to read, write, ski, wakeboard, play the flute, play the piano, be with my family, and watch movies. I have finished one year of college and loved it! I taught piano lessons for two years. I've also worked at Walmart and at a daycare. I was in marching band in high school. I am the oldest out of all of my siblings and have three younger sisters and two younger brothers. Right now I am serving a mission in the Taiwan, Taipei mission speaking Mandarin Chinese. I have a dream of one day being a great author and having many books and short stories published.

Why I am a Mormon

When I was little my parents would always take me to the LDS church on Sunday. I grew up in the church. Besides my family is was the only constant thing in my life with all of the moves. I am in the church not just because of these things, but because of other experiences that have helped my faith to grow. I have prayed and gotten answers, sometimes in unexpected ways. When I read the Book of Mormon I have a feeling of peace, when I go to church and learn about the gospel I have a good feeling inside me. It just makes sense, I know this church is true. Its hard for me to lie, and I hit a certain point in my life where I had to know that the LDS church is true to continue. I have not had a huge conversion experience, but through many different experiences in my life it has led up to my unwavering faith today. From praying to find something when I was five and finding it right away. To getting a warm feeling inside in answer to some question I have today. The reason why I am a Mormon is because I know the Book of Mormon is true. I know that Jesus Christ atoned for my sins, and was resurrected. I know Heavenly Father listens to my prayers. The things taught in the LDS church give me a good feeling, and I figure that if its makes me feel full of peace and happiness it has got to be true.

How I live my faith

I attend church for three hours each Sunday and I have also participated in a lot of church activities during the rest of the week. I have been one of the leaders in the church's organization for women for a couple months. I have also participated in a church pageant in Nauvoo for two weeks for two times with my family. In the church pageant we would prepare for the performance, help with a fair beforehand, and then be on stage. During high school I attended an early morning class before school each day that focused on these scriptures; the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and the Old and new testament in the Bible. I've participated in a lot of church sponsored events that focused on service in the community.

Brian Donahue was well versed in the Bible and had a strong religious upbringing, but he still felt something was missing. In his search to discover what that was, he never thought the answer would come directly from God.

God used prophets in the biblical times to relay His message and teach His children. Today, that same God is still calling prohets. Watch this video on why it's important that we have prophets on the earth today.
